PATTERNS

Volatile for his role. Edey has noticeable ups and downs, with scoring moving ~8 points between games.

Reliable shooter — hits 45%+ from the field in 75% of games. You can count on efficient nights more often than not.

Defensive difference-maker. Edey consistently forces tough shots and protects the rim — opponents shoot worse when he's guarding them.

Getting better as the season goes on. First-half impact: +6.0, second-half: +15.1. That's a significant jump — could be a role change, confidence, or development clicking.
